Jess Stryker Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore (sorry, I've been calling it a seashore, it is a Lakeshore, of course!) This is from almost the same location on top of Mt Baldy as the previous photo I posted. But here you can see some of the industrial uses that line the shores of Lake Michigan. This is the Michigan City power plant.

I am taking a water class the the Santa Rosa Junior College, my instructor is Daniel Muelrath. In his slide presentation he refers to your web site...and wow great information! I took the class to just figure out my sprinkler system but I am with a whole bunch of landscapers and over my head. Doing the math now on a... QWEL Field Audit Exercise...o what fun! not... So thanks for being there and having a sense of humor.Read More

Ghost stories and old buildings just seem to go together, and the national parks have their share of old buildings -- and ghosts! If you spend a night at The Chateau at Oregon Caves National Monument, you just might agree.

An old Holiday Inn flyswatter. Was this a room item or a promotional
give-away? Somehow seems not very appropriate as an promotional item
either way.

Went
up to Timberline Lodge on the slopes of Mt Hood (near Portland, Oregon)
for hot chocolate yesterday afternoon. For those unfamiliar with
Timberline, they are famous for this desert/drink called the Snowcap
Dream. Seeing the spectacular Timberline Lodge is worth the drive from Portland even without one of these, but you would be a fool to pass this up!

Mr Stryker, thank you so much for your overly informational website. I decided to not try and repair, yet rip out and replace my girlfriends irrigation system. (Phoenix, AZ) I do have a question still after all that reading, I'll try to get around to sending you an email.
Thanks for your expertise!

Jess Stryker OK, the new sprinklers are working good again this morning. Hopefully no more break-downs!

Jess Stryker Now one of the sprinkler risers broke on my new sprinkler system. I guess that's a brand that won't get a great review from me!
